Registration is now open for the Southern Institute for Health Informatics 10th
Annual Conference: Patient engagement through innovation
Friday 18th September, Portsmouth
After nine tremendously successful SIHI conferences, we invite you to
participate in this year's event which is supported by SEHTA - the South East
Health Technology Alliance. The venue will be the Richmond Building, on the main
University of Portsmouth campus.
The theme for the conference is how information and communication
technologies (ICT) can provide innovative ways to engage patients in their
health and social care.
As usual, we have a wide range of speakers representing local and national
points of view, including Manpreet Pujara, Sarah Hamilton-Fairley, Flis Henwood,
Malcolm Stewart and Henry Pares.
The conference is aimed at healthcare professionals, senior managers and system
developers both within the NHS and in companies supplying products and services
to it. Others with interests in health informatics will also find plenty to hear
and talk about.
The cost of early registration (bookings made before 1st September) is only £85
(with discounts for multiple attendees from the same organisation), which
includes lunch. Booking can be made online.
Infomart
The conference also features an "Infomart". The Infomart is an informal
information marketplace area that allows vendors and researchers a low cost
method of meeting people and exchanging information.
